Work up a cute beanie in no time using bulky weight yarn. It’s okay to splurge on luxuriously soft alpaca—this hat uses only one skein! This pattern includes sizes to fit babies, children, and two adult sizes. Change the colors to add stripes and vary the edging for completely different looks—all from one pattern!
